    Queen Bee Pizza
    Susan H.

    This location is of Earls is locates in financial district. Note there is a second location on king much closer to Spadina. If you reserve a seat make sure you have the correct location selected! This restaurant is always packed during business hours. It slow down around 2-430pm. When the restaurant is packed. Expect your meal to be an hour to an hour and a half. I ordered the Strawberry Hibiscus Mule ($8.5), the Yuzu calamari ($20.75), and the Queen Bee Pizza ($24.75) which were all delicious. My one issue with this restaurant is the prices are quite high for what you get and it's almost always busy when you actually want to eat. Overall the wait staff is kind, and I will end up returning on some sort of business lunch. I also appreciate the variety of vegetarian menu options.

    Decided to order from this restaurant sight unseen. Never heard of this place before but it popped up on a search and I decided, why not. I got the blackened chicken with double portion of broccolini and I was pleasantly surprised. The chicken breast was cooked to perfection and will rested too. So moist that at one point while cutting the chicken juice squirted across the countertop. Well portioned and flavorful. Definitely will stop in the next time I'm visiting Toronto!! Fully recommend!

    I hit up Earl's kitchen just to have a light drink after work. The bar wasn't busy at the time I went. So the service was okay. The ambiance is the regular dagler Earl's ambiance LOL. The lychee Martini should definitely be re-added to the happy hour menu because quite honestly, the happy hour menu does need a little bit of work.

    November 27/2025: Lunch with Keith at a downtown location. Very enjoyable lunch. Alfresco dining at the end of November. It was my usual...Cajun chicken with warm potato salad & coleslaw. The coleslaw & potato salad were served mixed which wasn't for me. I like them separated. Excellent meal, service. Definitely a do over.

    Happy hour bites

    It's been years since I've been to Earls but a colleague chose this spot for happy hour drinks and bites. Walked in at 5pm and the place was already packed. I think it's a good idea to make a reso to avoid a wait. Ordered the Aburi salmon sushi press, avocado chips and truffle fries (not pictured). It's good food for a chain restaurant but I've definitely had better bites elsewhere. What I really liked was the lively atmosphere and upbeat music. Honestly don't remember Earls being this bumpin'. Will be returning for happy hour soon. Solid 3.5 stars for good drinks and above average budget friendly food.

    Earls is one of those dining establishments perfect to celebrate a birthday or anniversary! I love going here as its in core downtown and in the financial district. The service is always so great with the kindest servers. When it comes to the food, the portion sizes are huge! Definitely shareable meals, and the food is delicious. Totally recommend coming here during their lunch specials because the steak and sushi is so beyond good. The drinks are also delicious here! 8.5/10 recommend!

    The Happy Hour menu
    Joani O.

    I am in Toronto for work and Earl's is in my path so I decided to give it a try. They're on Open Table so I made a reservation to be safe. I was dining alone and all of the appetizers are to share (too much food), so I couldn't order one, but I ordered the steak frites (a filet with french fries) that also comes with salad. It was perfect. My filet was cooked perfectly and everything on the plate was delicious. I had just missed their happy hour which had great deals but I ordered a ginger kombucha which was delicious and healthy. I couldn't get the white mocha creme brûlée to go like I wanted because they torch it. So I ordered the carnelized cheesecake to go. It came with whipped cream and raspberry sauce on the side and a delicious cookie. It was a small slice for $14 and only ok, but it satisfied my sweet tooth after dinner. The whole menu looked appealing and they are reasonably priced so I'd love to come back. Paige my waitress was lovely too.

    Prosciutto pizza, chicken Alfredo with garlic bread, and the fried calamari
    Kateri

    Came here for dinner yesterday and had a great time! The food was great and very filling. We ordered the prosciutto pizza, chicken Alfredo with garlic bread, and the fried calamari. The patio area was lovely clean, well-kept, and really aesthetically pleasing. Both our hostess and server were extremely kind. Our server was especially attentive, constantly checking in, refilling our waters, and bringing us extra sauce without us needing to ask. I'd definitely recommend the chicken Alfredo, it was rich, creamy, and satisfying. The prosciutto pizza was also really tasty, savory without being overly salty. The only dish I'd probably skip next time is the calamari, as the portion felt a bit small for the price. Other than that, everything was wonderful and we really enjoyed our evening here!

    We came on a weekday and were a big group so it took a bit of time to get us seated and a while to get our drinks and food ordered. When the food and drinks did arrive it was amazing! Notably given this location is on King street there's no parking available but the upstairs patio area was really nice.

    Lychee Martini
    Domonique S.

    I was informed that not only did they offer late night happy hour but on their late night happy hour menu you can order half priced seafood towers. Once I heard that I knew I had to check out Earls Kitchen & Bar before leaving Toronto and I am so glad that I did. The vibes and drinks we great and let me just say the seafood tower did not disappoint. It comes with freshly shucked oysters, jumbo shrimp cocktail, ahi tuna tataki, spicy California roll, and lobster tails paired with a passion fruit martini, I have to say I was in heaven lol Visiting Earls was honestly the perfect way to end not only the evening but a trip to Toronto. Will definitely be back to try some of their other menu items.

    My recent visit to Earls Kitchen was truly outstanding! From the moment we walked in, the server attended to our every need with professionalism and warmth. When we requested to switch to a more comfortable seat, our server was kind to accommodated us. Surprisingly the food arrived quickly (considering how busy it looked), and the presentation was great. Every bite was delicious, and we thoroughly enjoyed our meals. My partner and I got the Cajun Blacken Chicken with warm potatoes and salad. And then throughout our time, the server checked in regularly. Honestly, their prices were reasonable, especially considering the high quality of food, service, and ambiance. Also, they have daily specials for alcoholic beverages. I got the redwine sangria (it wasn't among the daily specials for that day). Overall, we had a great time. This is actually my 2nd time here. First time, was for our anniversary. I'll definitely be back.

    We were on a walk back to our hotel after the Coldplay show at around midnight. Absolutely starving and we saw Earls was still open. We waited about 10 mins for a table for 4. Our waiter Gareth was quick and friendly, making sure to check on us often. The atmosphere was fun and inviting. The manager came over and had a chat with us, which was appreciated. She is in the video off to the left on the walkthrough. We had a couple of pizza's, tacos and a Nashville chicken sandwich. Everything was delicious. We are often in TO and will be back to eat here again. Reasonably priced food and drinks with friendly staff, all around great experience!

    Allison G.

    We sat on the patio for dinner & it was such a good vibe! The cajun blackened salmon was delicious with the citrus rice & the feta caper aioli. My friend got the noodle bowl & really liked it as well.

When you arrive you have the option to sit on the first floor or upstairs on the rooftop bar. I believe this is the only multi-level Cactus Club Cafe I've ever been to. We opted for the rooftop bar which had a high energy, upscale, and stylish vibe to it. We ended up sitting at the bar as it was very crowded. I ordered a frozen Aperol Spritz which was excellent and I could drink a few of these. For food we ordered a burger and fries which was good but nothing to write home about. If you are looking for a late night spot for drinks and food the Cactus Club Cafe is a solid choice.

The place SEEMED quiet but shortly thereafter the place got JAMMED! Initially it was slow service but it picked up shortly. We had several different servers so no single server is tagged here. I will say that it's a hip, nicely equipped restaurant. We decided to do an appie meal. We ordered Sichuan Chicken lettuce wraps ($25.50)..this was the best of the appies. The next was the Crab Dip ($20.75), it was hot but not overly tasty. 3rd was the Hot Chicken Bites with pickles ($16.00). They were ok but not hot in temp enough. The final was the Chili Citrus Calamari ($21.25). This was the worse of the dishes. Simply put, it was cold. The server removed this from our bill. In summary...I wouldn't go out of my way again to go here but given all things being equal, the servers were very good. As a final note...the bathroom was very clean & well maintained.

From the vibes to the food, everything was top notch. Tyler took care of our group and made sure that we got an experience rather than just a meal. Upon being seated we got napkins to match our outfits so the white lint didn't get on our black pants , an incredible guava passion fruit cocktail to try and a meat presentation to make sure we all order like pros from here on out. The food was incredible- one our tastebuds won't forget! Our group of 5 started with fresh sushi and sashimi, table side Caesar salad and the softest brioche served with sun-dried tomato butter that was perfect in every way. Main course: Australian wagyu ribeye that we didn't even have to chew plus a strip loin and beef Wellington (which was maybe the only thing I don't need to order again, but still delicious). All the sides were amazing and finally sticky toffee pudding and butter cake to put us in a complete food coma. Wouldn't change a thing about this meal. We cannot thank you enough Tyler (and Toronto!!)!

    Found this cocktail bar through a friend and immediately made a reservation after seeing the menu…read more The ingredients are complex but intentional, with East Asian influences. I found myself wanting to try most of the cocktails, which is a rarity. We got the Strawberry Tetsu to start (inspired by Uncle Tetsu's Japanese cheesecake), along with the Cloudy Oolong (tea-based cocktail with a salted caramel cheese foam). The Strawberry Tetsu tasted like a dessert and was delicious, with a graham cracker crumble rim. The Cloudy Oolong had a strong tea taste which I loved, as sometimes the tea can get lost in a cocktail. The foam on top was addicting and paired nicely with it, similar to a bubble tea. Next, I had the Burnt Yuzu which was light and refreshing from the citrus. The bar is hidden behind Misfit Ice Cream, with a speakeasy vibe to the interior. Large windows line one wall with a view to the exterior, but are tinted enough that people walking by cannot see in. Service was great, although they do have a strict 1 hr 45 min time limit for seating, regardless of whether the bar is packed or not.

We walked up to an unassuming entrance that is part of the experience, and once inside, the atmosphere shifts completely. The space is intimate and cozy with dim lighting, comfortable seating, and a relaxed speakeasy vibe that makes it easy to settle in for a couple of drinks. The transition from the street to the interior feels deliberate, and the low-key energy of the room encourages lingering. The cocktail menu leans heavily into Asian-inspired flavors, and that is what makes it stand out. Every drink feels thoughtfully developed rather than relying on presentation alone. We tried the Cloudy Oolong, which was especially memorable with its rich tea flavor and creamy cheese foam that added a savory depth to the cocktail. The Strawberry Tetsu offered a dessert-like profile without becoming overly sweet, balancing fruit and tea notes in a way that felt refined and well composed. Each cocktail arrived beautifully presented and balanced, making it easy to appreciate the amount of care that goes into every glass. The menu is creative without being gimmicky, and the flavors are well integrated, with each drink offering something distinct. The staff were welcoming and happy to explain the menu or offer recommendations if you are unsure what to order. They guided us through the flavor profiles and offered thoughtful suggestions based on our preferences. Service felt attentive without being overbearing, and the overall pace made it a great place to relax rather than rush through a drink. The team checked in at the right moments and kept the experience feeling personal and unhurried. If you are looking for a cocktail bar that offers something different from the usual classics, After Seven delivers a memorable experience. Between the hidden entrance, intimate setting, and creative drinks, it is the kind of place that is easy to recommend whether you are celebrating a special occasion or simply looking for one of Toronto's more unique bars. The balance of atmosphere, craftsmanship, and service makes it a standout in the city's cocktail scene.

    I've been wanting to try LOUIX LOUIS for the longest time, so when the opportunity came up to visit…read moreduring Summerlicious, I knew I had to finally check it out. Located on the 31st floor of the St. Regis Hotel, the restaurant has an incredible atmosphere. The dining room is absolutely stunning with a classy and luxurious feel, but it still feels comfortable and inviting rather than too formal. We started the evening with cocktails before moving into the Summerlicious menu. I ordered the "I Only Drink When I Smoke," which was a great way to start the night. It had a subtle smoky flavour with a touch of sweetness, and the alcohol was not overpowering at all. It was smooth, easy to sip on, and the perfect drink to enjoy while having conversations. For my Summerlicious menu, I started with the Tartare de Boeuf and Caviar. The filet mignon tartare was fresh and really smooth, with a nice balance of rich and savoury flavours. The toasted bread also gave it a nice crunch and paired really well with the tartare. For the main course, I had the Roasted Chateaubriand Filet. When the plate was served, the meat looked really rare as I saw nothing but red on the meat, but it was incredibly tender, making it easy to cut through. It was full of flavour, and the sauce complemented the steak without being too heavy or salty. The vegetables added a nice balance to the dish, and the creamy mashed potatoes were smooth, and definitely one of my favourite parts of the meal. To finish, I had the Mango Passionfruit Cheesecake. It was creamy without feeling too heavy. Though the fruity flavours from the mango passionfruit were a bit tart and sweet for my palate, it still gave an overall refreshing touch. The crust added a nice texture, and it was the perfect ending to the meal. Beyond the food, what really stood out was the service and pacing of the evening. Each course arrived at the right time, allowing us to enjoy every dish without feeling rushed. The price point is definitely on the higher end, so it is not somewhere I would personally visit for a casual dinner on a regular basis. However, for a special occasion, celebration, or a night where you want to enjoy a beautiful dining experience, I think Louix Louis would be a great choice... and for $75/ person for Summerlicious/ Winterlicious, definitely a great value to sample the chefs' artistry. Overall, it was a memorable evening with an elegant atmosphere, thoughtfully prepared dishes, and great service. I can definitely understand why this spot has become such a popular destination, and I would love to come back again for Winterlicious!

    Perched high above the bustle of downtown Toronto, LOUIX LOUIS makes a compelling first impression…read more The dining room is genuinely handsome -- a study in polished Art Deco glamour softened by sweeping city views that lend every table a sense of occasion. On a Valentine's Day brunch visit, the atmosphere alone was enough to justify the reservation. The kitchen demonstrates genuine competence: dishes arrive with care, the pacing is unhurried, and the mise en scène -- from tableside presentation to that now-famous thirteen-layer chocolate cake -- reveals an establishment that understands the theatre of fine dining. That towering slice of chocolate cake, in particular, is a masterstroke of marketing and pastry craft in equal measure; it draws the eye, earns its reputation, and very nearly steals the show. Where LOUIX LOUIS gives one pause is in the cuisine's ability to fully match its surroundings. The cooking is accomplished and reliably pleasant, yet seldom rises to the level of genuine distinction one might hope for at this price point. Dishes satisfy without surprising; technique is evident but inspiration, at moments, feels held in reserve. For the corporate traveller or the visitor seeking a polished, geographically convenient showcase of the city's skyline, this represents an entirely sound choice. For those seeking an experience whose flavours linger as long as the view, the kitchen has room yet to grow into its magnificent stage. Service is attentive and well-intentioned, though it can occasionally want for the depth of knowledge that elevates a good meal into a memorable one. LOUIX LOUIS is, in sum, a very good restaurant striving -- not quite yet arriving -- at greatness. The bones are exceptional; one hopes the culinary vision will, in time, catch up with them.
